Capitol Hill ends at 10th St. So Hill east refers to the streets east of 10th.
Always fun and interesting. It keeps getting better too!

Not getting much of anything except location. The house is very basic. I guess for some that would make it a good deal.
You, sir or madam, appear to have forgotten the three rules of real estate: 1. Location; 2. Location, and 3. Location.
Some of those photos have depth-defying perspectives. (Compare pics 3 and 4 to see how the carpet magically stretches in #4 to make the living room look much deeper.) And that’s a skinny-person kitchen.
Also, that basement has seen some water, my friends. Sadly, this is what half a mil gets you in DC.
Yup, you can clearly see the water line marking on the wall. Why they didn’t spend $100 and a weekend painting the basement just boggles my mind. Easiest fix ever.
I actually think the interior is pretty nice. The bathroom needs a gut renovation, however having only 1 bathroom is really crappy. Eventually, you would want to put in a half-bath downstairs.
The sellers could be doing full disclosue re: water line, aka not hiding it.
Pro: there’s a lot of foot and vehicle traffic on that street.
Con: there’s a lot of foot and vehicle traffic on that street.
Can anyone explain the pricing? What’s up with the $777? It’s not like that would make a difference in terms of search criteria…
It references a number for God. It’s a superstitious thing. Same reason why Jews love to give money or sell property in multiples of 18 or Chinese love to have the number 8 in everything (sales price, phone number, address, etc.)
It’s silly.
Those stairs really should get a firm steam cleaning before any open houses are done… perhaps the couches as well. It matters.
What happened to the virtual tours that used to be linked to on GDON’s? I miss them, the images were much bigger.
